Volunteer tutor needed: English writing for a motivated student in San Francisco

Bella is working hard on English writing but can't afford a tutor; 1 hours a week until the national would help enormously.

My niece, Bella, is 14 and in Form 3. Bella loves school but English writing has been a struggle since the school was closed during the floods. The national exam is in December. We can't afford a private tutor, and the school's free sessions are full. We're looking for a volunteer who could spend one or two hours a week, in person in San Francisco or online, for about sixteen weeks. Bella is polite, hardworking and eager. We have a quiet space and a laptop for online sessions. I'll always be at home for in-person sessions. If you're a teacher, student or professional who feels comfortable in English writing, you could change the course of Bella's year. Thank you for reading my story.
